Eaton Specification Sheet - EFDC2419
Through-feed, three-pole, single-gang enclosure keeps wiring clean and panel space tight, reducing installation time and field errors. This improves startup reliability and lowers labor costs during commissioning, especially in limited-access control cabinets found in plant floors. The dual voltage and horsepower range—240/600 VAC with 7.5/15 HP and 20/30 A—matches common motor loads, enabling streamlined stocking and reducing over-sizing decisions. The rugged Feraloy iron alloy housing provides durable, explosion-proof construction for harsh environments, extending service life and reducing replacement cycles in petrochemical and refinery applications. NEC/CEC compliance along with Class I, Division 1 and 2, Class II, Division 1 and 2, and Class III ratings support regulatory approvals, easing inspection processes and project sign-off. NEMA ratings of 3, 7, 9, and 12 offer reliable protection in indoor and outdoor installations, mitigating weather and chemical exposure risks. The single-gang, through-feed design simplifies panel wiring and maintenance, making retrofits and upgrades faster and less disruptive.

FAQs
EFDC2419 is designed for Class I, II, and III hazardous areas with through-feed wiring in a single-gang, three-pole enclosure. Ensure compliance with NEC/CEC requirements and install the unit on a suitable mounting surface with proper enclosure protection (NEMA 3/7/9/12) and appropriate wiring methods for 240/600 VAC systems.
The starter offers 7.5 HP at 240 VAC and 15 HP at 600 VAC, with amperage ratings of 20 A and 30 A respectively. This matches common industrial motor profiles, enabling efficient control without over-sizing and reducing spare parts inventory for mixed voltage applications.
Yes. EFDC2419 is part of the EFD explosion-proof motor starter family and is designed to integrate with matched Eaton Crouse-Hinds components. For seamless assemblies, reference the SP3D Design Package and EFD catalog pages to verify compatibility and wiring schemes.
EFDC2419 carries NEC/CEC standards and hazardous location ratings including Class I Division 1 and 2, Class II Division 1 and 2, and Class III, along with NEMA 3/7/9/12 protection. These certifications support regulatory approvals, reduce engineering review time, and simplify proof of compliance during audits.
The rugged Feraloy iron alloy construction reduces wear and replacement cycles in harsh environments, while explosion-proof design minimizes risk of arcing and leaks. The compact, reliable design lowers labor costs during installation and maintenance, delivering a lower total cost of ownership and faster project payback in hazardous-location motor control applications.
